The Attenbury emeralds Lord Peter Wimsey's first case

Paton Walsh, Jill 1937- (Author). Petherbridge, Edward, 1936- (narrator.).

Summary: In 1921, while Lord Peter was still convalescing from the nervous breakdown he suffered from his time in the WWI trenches, the aristocrat got involved in finding missing emeralds belonging to the Attenbury family. Thirty years later, the current Lord Attenbury, who's in dire financial straits, wishes to sell one of the jewels, "the king-stone," but a shadowy claimant challenges his ownership of it. When Wimsey and his detective novelist wife, Harriet Vane, look into the dispute, they discover a chain of murders related to the emeralds.
